THE TYBEE RAILROAD.
Last Months Big Business Improve
ment of the Roadbed.

| Tvbee Island, via the Tybee railroad is
now the correct thing for all who desire to
enjoy a good outing All are familiar with
the Disadvantages under which the company
labored, and those who travelled over the
road were pleased, as well AS greatly
! surprised at the good time
made The report of last months
business certainly is "A very encouraging one
for the company The total receipts from
July - TO Aug. u, last. were s., 500 10, and
the expenditures during that period 81
662 s., leaving net earning of some 81 $50.
The officers state that they could have car
ried three times the number they did
with very little additional outlay. One
great study for the management
has been the best plan for making
the roadbed strong and able to resist the
strong tides and floods. They deliberated
long while on this subject and studded 1t
carefully. Driving piles alongside the outer
edge of the roadbed was suggested as the
they hit upon their present plan, which they
consider the most feasible. The
roadbed is being now built up
TO standard grade, which will raise the
track fully two to three feet higher than it
is now on the marshes Sand is being used
for this purpose, as it is said, to answer the
requirements better than clay. Commenc-
eng at the top, on each side, about one loot
from the edge of the roadbed, a thick
marsh clay Jacket is being put over
sand which composes the roadbed proper.
At the bottom this extends out over three
feet. When this is finished il will make a
water-tight embankment, and very strong
and durable, The strongest currents will
have little effect on such solid bank, and
even if the high tides or foods sweep over it
the compactness OF the covering will prevent
any washing whatever. The company is
working indefatigably to make this model
road, and are extending large sums freely
to secure substantial and safe roadway.
Forty-five miles per hour can safely be
made ut>n such a track and bed, with a
smooth, easy motion

Reason for it.
The figure of Monsieur Robert Pierrat is
| a familiar one around the Screven House.
M. Pierrat has been living there for some
months past. He is a Partisan, though
from his attire no one would suspect him of
| coming from the gay capital of La Belle
France. His large, heavy frame was be-
clothed with a pair of trousers that
swelled from the knee like a sailors, white
| flannel shirt, the bosom of which was about
eight inches from the waistband of
his trousers, the implicated section be-
meath the bosom spreading smoothly
over a stomach of aldermanic proportions,
a light coat, a white helmet and cigarette.
His face and features were large, his ewes
grey and bullying, and on his upper lip was

who like to meet what is termed "charac-

large stories he has told about his extensive
travels and many accomplishments have
marked him as a man who is extremely
economical with the truth. He says that he
speaks English, French, German, Spanish,
Italian and one or two more languages, be-
sides being familiar with the tongues of
ancient Greece and Rome. The modern
languages, he says, he has learned by resid-
ing in the various countries until he became
familiar with the medium of communica-
ton, and thus he is able to tell of the man.

he has been representing the house

an individual whom he considered a pros
